II Falco looks to serve you with the most delicious and finest Italian cuisine in the area. Inspired by the original owners of II Mulino, Gino and Fernando Masci, Bolivar acquired the love for the Italian kitchen. This has given them the experience in creating and mastering familiar pastas such as the wild porcini mushroom ravioli with black truffle cream sauce. From the sea we have branzino cooked in sea salt, as well as fresh seafood with angel hair. For meat lovers we have a choice of delicious veal chops to rack of lamb to PorterHouse Steak. We look forward to providing you with outstanding service and make you feel just like home.

My only gripe and this is nothing against the restaurant. We went during restaurant week and the portions were so small I was ready to eat dinner after I ate there . Restaurant week has become a complete ripoff , I am done trying it. They give you such minimal portions it is a total scam. Il Falco always has excellent food.

Service was good, noise level is really dependent on the largest table there, was hoping the food would be better, but still enjoyable. Eggplant parm was not better than a good neighborhood pizzaria, so still good, but was hoping for better at an Italian restaurant. Was trying to avoid driving into the city. I think it's on par with Portofino's in Forest Hills. I think their 2nd floor had a better ambiance, but wasn't open for seating. The first floor can get very loud, but luckily for us, the loud group that was there moved out to the patio.

So bad I feel compelled to write a review. $23 for 3 (mini) cocktail shrimp. That would pretty much be the only thing I’d have to say about this place, if i was not also compelled to talk about the incompetent waiting staff (were they hired earlier in the day?) or the main course that took 35mn to come to our table, stale and clearly microwaved, or the 2 glasses of « champagne » one flat and the other too sweet to be anything else but cheap prosecco… We didn’t stay for desert. What a disappointment and a waste of a valentines dinner. My wife and I chose to laugh it off because we were getting in a bad mood for falling for this trap. This place is clearly a cash cow for the owner, and this restaurant has no shame nor any respect for its customers. Don’t trust the website or the positive reviews, stay away! $23 for 3 shrimps 😂😂😂
Il Falco RestaurantResponded on February 15, 2022Hello, thank you for taking your time for to review your experience with us, We understand the review focuses on the pricing of our food items for valentines, our prices are fare and well thought out.

The music , service, decor, ambience, food, was very very good especially the mussels in wine sauce and the rack of lamb it was mouthwatering we had a beautiful night and I intend to return and recommend thanks to the cooks and the servers. The only thing I don’t like is that they give you less than half of a wine glass And is if you ask for a half they charge you.

It was for my mothers day celebration and I enjoyed everything. We were running late after having a 7 month old it’s hard to be on time lol. But they were great about it and the service was good. I had a mango martini and it was so good! Also they had a special the lamb chops omg tasty! My husband and daughter had fettuccine with shrimp so delicious. I would definitely go back. The setting was nice as well as I love my pictures!! 🥰

This is an unusual place. The wine list contained several surprising values. The baked clams, which are hard to ruin, were mediocre, at best. But the lamb chops and tuna special were exceptional. The ambience was reminiscent of an old school trattoria. But the 1980s pop music didn’t fit at all. It was a distraction that made me feel like I was at my senior prom, waiting for Molly Ringwald to walk in. The food was good enough to say I’ll go back. But I won’t rush to get there.
